FOREWORD’ 


THE Currier & Ives lithographs in colors have at last come into their 
own. 

Curious that these interesting “American Documents” have laid dormant 
for so many years and now they have become a source of contention ane 
collectors of Americana who appreciate their merit and interest. 

With few exceptions, the medium of these lithographs is the only art in 
America of the period, depicting scenes or a phase of American farm, rural 
and sporting life now, alas, passé. 

To the older generation they are in subject matter wonderfully remin- 
iscent, and to the younger and future generations they will be accepted as 
faithful records, one might say, of “America in the transition period.” 

These lithographs, first issued by N. Currier about 1840, and subse- 
quently by Currier & Ives, are examples equal to the finest of the kind pro- 
duced in any country or period. And of the various artists who were 
engaged, special attention should be called to the names of Maurer, Tait, 
Palmer, Durrie, Cameron, etc. 

Of the entire publications there are, however, some few of the litho- 
graphs that possess but little merit, which would be expected of an enter- 
prise covering a period of some thirty-five years. 

In any event, they all are a serious expression of American art and life 
of the last century—an America gone forever—and are fundamentally and 
distinctively an American production, in most cases absolutely unique and 
contemporary records. 

Perhaps to the more artistically inclined, those of the sporting series are 
considered the finest, dealing with events of the Race Track and particularly 
the Hunting, Fishing and Shooting compositions, settings mostly in the 
Adirondacks and upper Hudson regions. 

The Western series or “Prairie Life” are the rarest Si especially desir- 
able, showing the struggles between the Settlers and Indians (our so-called 
“American Frontier Life”), dealing, of course, with the gradual develop- 
ment and progress westward. 

In the historical series there is quite a complete and unique pictorial 


1 Reprint from Mr. Russell W. Thorpe’s article “Art Notes” of recent date. 


record of the Mexican and Civil War periods and others going back to the 
Revolutionary events. 

In the naval and marine prints, the artistic quality and beauty attained in 
the lithographs of this series might be called a lost art; and the ones featur- 
ing the “gone but not forgotten” Clipper Ship are prize possessions. 

Last, but not least, mention must be made of the interesting group of 
American general views and cities. } 

According to the present trend of interest and demand, the future value 
of these lithographs is upward bound, the current values having advanced 
considerably as compared with the prices they “went begging for”? some 
years ago. The one factor in this instance is the scarcity of many of these 
prints because of the small original issues, coupled with the fact that a 
number of them have been lost or destroyed; the consequence of a past 
attitude of indifference and neglect when they more or less suffered the 
disparagement of being dubbed commonplace and crude. 

The decorative qualities of these lithographs make a most attractive fea- 


ture in a country home, or a home of the earlier type, aside from the interest 
they hold! for the collector of Historical Documents.

Conditions of Sale 


1. Rejection of Bids. Any bid which is not commensurate with the value of the article 
offered, or which is merely a nominal or fractional advance may be rejected by the auctioneer 
if in his judgment such bid would be likely to affect the sale injuriously. 


2. The Buyer. The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and if any dispute arises between two 
ie eae bidders, the auctioneer shall either decide the same or put up for re-sale the lot so in 
ispute. 

3. Identification and Deposit by Buyer. The name of the buyer of each lot shall be given 
immediately on the sale thereof, and when so required, each buyer shall sign a card giving 
the lot number, amount for which sold, and his or her name and address. 

A deposit at the actual time of the sale shall be made of all or such part of the pur- 
chase prices as may be required. 

If the two foregoing conditions are not complied with, the lot or lots so purchased may at 
the option of the auctioneer be put up again and re-sold. 


4. Risk after Purchase. Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, and there- 
after neither the consignor nor the Association is responsible for the loss or any damage to 
any article occasioned by theft, fire, breakage or any other cause. 


5. Delivery of Purchases. Delivery of any purchases will be made only upon payment of the 
total amount due for all purchases at the sale. 


6. Receipted Bills. Goods will be delivered only on presentation of a receipted bill. A 
receipted bill presented by any person will be recognized and honored as an order by the buyer, 
directing the delivery to the bearer of the goods described thereon. If a receipted bill is lost 
before delivery of the property has been made, the buyer should immediately notify the Asso- 
ciation of such loss. 


7. Storage in Default of Prompt Payment and Calling for Goods. Articles not paid for 
in full and not called for by the purchaser or agent by noon of the day following that of the 
sale may be turned over by the Association to some carter to be carried to and stored in some 
warehouse until the time of the delivery therefrom to the purchaser, and the cost of such 
cartage and storage and any other charges will be charged against the purchaser and the 
risk of loss or damage occasioned by such removal or storage will be upon the purchaser. 

In any instance where the purchase bill has not been paid in full by noon of the day 
following that of the sale, the Association reserves the right, any other stipulation in these. 
conditions of sale notwithstanding, in respect to any or all of lots so purchased to cancel the 
sale thereof or to re-sell the same at public or private sale without further notice for the 
pecunt of the buyer and to hold the buyer responsible for any losses and costs sustained in 
so doing. . 


8. Shipping. Shipping, boxing or wrapping of purchases is a business in which the Asso- 
ciation is in no wise engaged, but the Association will, however, afford to purchasers every 
facility for employing at current and reasonable rates carriers and packers; doing so, how- 
ever, without any assumption of responsibility on its part for the acts and charges of the 
parties engaged for such service. 


9. Guaranty. The Association exercises great care to catalogue every lot correctly and 
endeavors therein and also at the actual time of sale to point out any error, defect or imper- 
fection, but guaranty is not made either by the owner or the Association of the correctness of 
the description, genuineness, authenticity or condition of any lot and no sale will be set aside 
on account of any incorrectness, error of cataloguing or imperfection not noted or pointed out. 
Every lot is sold “as is” and without recourse. 

Every lot is on public exhibition one or more days prior to its sale, and the Association 
will give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy expert to the effect that any lot has 
been incorrectly catalogued and in its judgment may thereafter sell the lot as catalogued or 
make mention of the opinion of such expert, who thereby will become responsible for such 
damage as might result were his opinion without foundation. 


10. Records. The records of the Auctioneer and the Association are in all cases to be con- 
sidered final and the highest bid shall in all cases be accepted by both buyer and seller as the 
value against which all claims for losses or damage shall lie. 


11. Buying on Order. Buying or bidding by the Association for responsible parties on 
orders transmitted to it by mail, telegraph, or telephone will be faithfully attended to without 
charge or commission. Any purchases so made will be subject to the foregoing conditions of 
sale, except that, in the event of a purchase of a lot of one or more books by or for a purchaser 
who has not through himself or his agent been present at the exhibition or sale, the Association 
will permit such lot to be returned within ten days from the date of sale, and the purchase 
money will be refunded if the lot in any manner differs from its catalogue description. 

Orders for execution by the Association should be given with such clearness as to leave 
no room for misunderstanding. Not only should the lot number be given, but also the title 
and bids should be stated to be so much for the lot, and when the lot consists of one or more 
volumes of books or objects of art, the bid per volume or piece should also be stated. If the 
one transmitting the order is unknown to the Association, a deposit must be sent or reference 
submitted. Shipping directions should also be given. 


Priced Catalogues. Priced copies of the catalogue, or any session thereof, will be furnished 
by the Association at charges commensurate with the duties involved in copying the necessary 
information from the records of the Association. anh ; 

No person other than the auctioneer or an official of the Association is authorized to 
arrange conditions of sale different in any way from those herein contained.
